Rejected petition Hand FIFA's Olympic Tickets allocation to British Sports fans

More details

I would like the Government, given the recent comments made by Sepp Blatter, to reallocate the 1500 Olympic Tickets destined for a clearly corrupt organisation that is headed by someone who thinks Racism in football can be resolved with a handshake, to sell or donate FIFA's ticket allocation to British Sports Fans or Charities.
FIFA must be reformed, the British Government can help push forward this reform!

This petition was rejected

Why was this petition rejected?

It’s about something that the UK Government or Parliament is not directly responsible for.

The responsibility for all aspects of staging the Games, including ticketing, is that of the London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games (LOCOG) who are a private organisation operating independently of Government.

LOCOG can be contacted by writing to: London 2012, One Churchill Place, Canary Wharf, London E14 5LN; Tel: 0203 2012 000; or email: enquiries@london2012.com.

We only reject petitions that don’t meet the petition standards.
